Hey, guys! Been in Rubicon prep mode for the past few weeks... One upgrade that was high on the list was a front locker. I have an Off-Road, so the rear came with the factory locker. For more technical trail rides, I wanted to add something in the front. I looked into a few options, but the Eaton was available the fastest and didn't require additional mods (like an air locker, for example). We dropped the diff in the driveway (definitely harder to do on the ground) and took it to Bent Motorsports to have them install the actual e-locker inside. They got it done quick and we got the diff back home and reinstalled everything. Currently figuring out how to best run the leads and connect power to the locker. I'm thinking we go straight to my switch panel, but we'll see how that goes. Quick FYI... to the best of my knowledge, the new gen Toyotas all use the same 8.0 IFS front diff seen on previous generations. This is great news, because they didn't have to develop an entirely new setup. So if you're looking for lockers... check out Eaton. https://www.eaton.com/us/en-us/catalog/differentials/eaton-elocker-differential.html

I had the chance to off road a Terra TRD Pro Tacoma the other weekend, and man, did this color grow on me a lot! I’m not sure if it was the West Virginia leaves changing color or what, but made does this truck look good. Of all the Terra TRD Pro models, I think the Tacoma looks the best. The black accents really allow the Terracotta color to pop.
